The national Republican Party gleefully sent reporters "Clinton
Email Files" flash drives. And in a memo fired off to the
press on Monday, the party bragged about how much coverage it had
received.

"$581k in earned media off budget of $2,900," the memo said of
the flash drive campaign, adding that GOP staffers traveled
to Clinton's Brooklyn campaign headquarters to distribute them to
the media standing outside. "All reporters showed the drives in
their coverage."

Time magazine reporter Zeke Miller tweeted a photo of the drive
he received:

"A little reminder from the RNC that Hillary Clinton still hasn't
answered legitimate questions or handed over her secret server to
an independent party," the drive's note reads. "Here's a courtesy
thumb drive — make sure to save any emails from the Clinton
campaign before she wipes another server clean."

The attack is a reference to
last month's revelation that Clinton exclusively used her
personal email server for official business as secretary of
state. This practice allegedly violated federal guidelines and
critics accused Clinton of trying to avoid disclosure laws.

Clinton initially struggled to respond to the controversy but,
facing a barrage of negative headlines, eventually
held a chaotic press conference to address it. At the event,
she announced she had turned over about half of her 60,000 emails
to the State Department, but she also
raised eyebrows by revealing she deleted the other half.

Other Republicans also found creative ways to criticize Clinton
over the email deletion. Presidential candidate Sen. Rand Paul
(R-Kentucky) unveiled a new, "100% genuine" item in
his quirky campaign store:

"You've read about it on the news, now you can get one for
yourself," the item's description says. "Hillary's Hard Drive.
100% genuine erased clean email server. Buyer beware, this
product has had heavy use and it currently is no longer working,
but that doesn't mean it's not valuable to someone. Anyone?
Limited edition. We have 80 of these and when they're gone,
they're gone forever."
